When fixing the various vacuum and fuel foes I innadvertently chopped trough the T connector from the petcock to the carbs . Maybe someone has one in their kitchen junk drawer .lol .it ll save me the aggravation of waiting for the mail delivery Smiley

Try a pet store in the aquarium section.  They would probably have a tee connector for air lines.

Fred, if you are talking about the gas line T, you may be able to get one from JoeValk. There should not be a T-connection on the vacuum line coming from or to the petcock.

There is a tee on the vent line from the tank.

My guess is the fuel T that goes to the two carb banks.

I have the hoses that go from the T to the fuel rails on each side, but not the Tee.  Sorry!

 It is the fuel line from the petcock to the T separator to both banks.
back to changing air filte, finding the reason for shut-offs while warming up. the vacuum line at #4 split at nipple , only after puting the air box back (!!!!!) and a very frustrating -you sold me winshield washer hose you GDPOS!- episode , that i see the ,already trimmed , once or twice , fuel feed hose broken.Trying to save time,atempting to cut the feed hose to th T with a knife as there was no pulling it off with air box in place, gauged the T deep. a mortal coup.

Fred, when you install the airbox, build a loop with a piece of string, pull all the  air tubes together with the string. Make sure you tie a slip or shoe tying not when you pull all those tubes together. Install the airbox, pull the end of the string to untie the loop, all the air tubes fall into place. Wish I had a picture, but it is easy to do. It's like lassoing all the legs of a calf and pulling them together.LOL

I see you've ordered one, but if you want to save yourself the delay due to delivery time, I can pull one and hand it off to you to be replaced at a later date.
